Sonic and Knuckles headed to VC
It appears that one of the best games in the Sonic franchise is headed to the Virtual Console sometime in the future. The ESRB has recently added Sonic & Knuckles to its ratings list, and surprisingly enough, the game received a T rating for violence and alcohol reference.
Okay, I’m totally kidding on that second part. Like you’d probably guess, the game is actually rated “E for Everyone” and will surely be chock full of Sonic goodness. That’s good because I’ve had 800 points sitting in my account for a long time waiting for something to come along that’s worthwhile. This may be it.

One of the best games? More like half of a best game.

I wonder if you buy both games you “unlock” them connected as well?

No way it is worth it. If you own MC+, MC or even the original (like moi), it’s totally not worth the £3.40-ish price tag.

Thanks for not bothering to enable save carry-over with the lock-on bit in subsequent releases, SEGA!

I doubt George makes any sense. Of course they’ll figure something out for lock-on. It’s not hard at all.
And maxchain, the game has 4-5 levels plus some tiny sections, why would it need saving when not coupled with Sonic 3? Sonic 1 and 2 didn’t and they’re longer.
